Amazing excursion - It was an amazing outing. Karim knows a lot, we start with the catatumns, then the bookstore of Alexandria which is the most impressive, ending with the castle.
Lunch a 10/10, beautiful views.
Super recommended!

Alexandria day Visit - Our tour guide, Mohamed, was very welcoming and did a great job explaining the history of the catacombs, including how Egyptian culture was influenced by other civilizations, such as the Greeks. He also took us to various mosques, giving us insight into the local culture, and walked us through different parts of the city.
Overall, it was a good experience and a nice way to explore something different in Alexandria (e.g the library and fortress). However, I wouldn’t recommend this particular guide to someone who prefers a slower pace, as he moved quite quickly throughout the tour. That said, the experience itself was enriching and worthwhile especially if you’re based in Cairo. Visiting Alexandria offers a refreshing change of scenery and a broader perspective on the diversity of Egypt.
